Big Pine Cabin - Remote Access Retreat

This northern Minnesota remote cabin is located close to the BWCA in a road-less area not far from our Homestead on White Iron Lake. Summer access is by boat by water. I pick you up at a landing and go across lake approx. 2 miles to our dock.

We will help transport your gear and supplies to the remote cabin and back.

The Cabin is 22' x 16' with a wrap around deck area overlooking huge red and white pines. It is situated on a solid ledge rock formation. There are lots of windows which provide an abundance of natural light and great outdoor viewing. The inside of the cabin is all knotty pine. There is a woodstove for heating and propane stove and refrigerator for cooking. Propane gas lights. We also have a separate sauna building with attached bunkhouse for your bathing enjoyment. The cabin has no indoor plumbing or electricity, but is constructed for comfortable summer and winter time use. The cabin has cell phone capability.

We are pet friendly. $20.00 per dog per day. Max 2 dogs.

Beautiful secluded cabin
The cabins are well maintained in a beautiful location. All the basic tools you need are already in the kitchen and the host provided water for washing dishes etc. The lake was really quiet when we were there, perfect for canoeing.

Beautiful winter retreat
This is the second time I've stayed here, both times in the winter, and it's a perfect getaway. Long walks during the day along dogsled trails on a large yet minimally trafficked lake, followed by deeply relaxing saunas and reading by the fire in the evening. C'mon. The hosts are wonderful, as well, helpful and communicative. I'll undoubtedly visit again.

Fantastic Stay!
This was our second time staying at Big Pine Cabin. It's a magical forest. We had a beautiful evening canoe ride with swimming beavers. We are looking forward to our next visit.

Great solitude
Enjoyed my stay. Had a great time of solitude where the most prominent noise was the wind and squirrels. Had to wash pots and pans before using. Otherwise things were great.

Peaceful, Quiet, Secluded Time Away
It was unfortunate we could not have campfires or use the sauna due to the fire danger, but we still got the most of our experience, enjoying some time away in the seclusion. It was quiet and peaceful. The lake was nice and we even caught a few fish! Gary was great to work with and flexible with our check-in/check-out times.

Roughing it elegantly!
This sweet little cabin sits high on a huge piece of granite. While sitting on the wrap around deck perched up in the treetops it give a a feeling of being in a treehouse! We enjoyed looking down on the forest floor watching the birds and red squirrels foraging about. Also getting out on the the lake with one of the canoes provided made for another special day of adventure.

Cozy Cabin in the woods
We enjoyed a long weekend at this off-the-grid cabin. Even with negative 40 degree weather, the cabin was toasty with the wood stove. The birds that came to the feeder were great fun to watch over a pancake breakfast. Several were Canadian species not common to the southern part of the state (Pine Grossbeak, Gray Jay). Even deer could be seen from the cabin windows as they meandered through. Wonderful location, very relaxing!
